Review for Zoot Men’s Wave 3 Wetsuit – 2017

Our obsession with finding the best balance of flexibility and floatation began in 2007 with the birth of the Zenith WetZoot. The Wave 3 has the perfect balance of flexibility and flotation. For the best relationship between the swimmers body and the water, we’ve used the latest technology to perfect stroke, body roll, body position and overall hydrodynamics. We strive to help swimmers have their strongest and most powerful swim in our wetsuits. Yamamoto #39 Yamamoto SCS AEROdome – Thousands of air pockets between layers of neoprene provide up to 30% more buoyancy than conventional neoprene. The AEROdome neoprene places the body high in the water to achieve the most efficient swimming position. SCS hydrodynamic finish – Super Composite Skin is a hydrodynamic coating that reduces friction, allowing the wetsuit to glide through the water more efficiently. AQUAlift buoyancy panels – The AQUAlift buoyancy panels in the lower core and rear raise the legs and torso to put the body in the most effective swimming position for maximum power and speed. COMFORTcell Gold 100% Nylon Super thin neck with fuse welded SCS 2mm Speed Release Ankle Panels Zero Water wrist cuff closure OKD – Optimal Kick Design – Zoot’s proprietary leg patterning works with the anatomy of the swimmers legs to increase kick velocity, frequency, and efficiency. The unique pattern reduces leg muscle fatigue allowing for a stronger kick throughout the entire swim. DORSALflex zipper FLEXback design with 100% broken knit Nylon – A premium patterned design throughout the back and shoulders of the wetsuit that uses a 2mm Yamamato #40 neoprene. The flexibility in the back and the shoulders allows for full range of motion during the catch and recovery phase,reducing shoulder fatigue. The interior fabric features BGX broken knit structure lining to maximize stretch. PROarm proprioception panel – During the catch phase, the PROarm proprioception panel allows for stroke feedback, promoting flawless technique and maximum power transfer. The PROarm Panel is constructed of an ultra-thin hydrophobic stretch fabric on the leading edge of the forearm with a raised dot pattern for the ultimate sensory experience.

Review for Blue Seventy Men’s Sleeveless Helix Wetsuit

We’ve enhanced our flagship Helix wetsuit with subtle pattern refinements and considerable material improvements. This year our Helix suit is designed to further impress with unparalleled flexibility while strategic materials and panels maximize buoyancy throughout the suit. Our Torsional Stretch Technology has been further enhanced with functional design using A-Flex material in a swim specific multi-directional layout. Our now legendary reverse zipper not only ensures a more sure swim, and a quicker suit exit, but reduces the need for a traditionally bulky collar, improving your comfort and making it easier to sight. The 2mm textured Knee Flex panels assists with knee flexing by reducing bunching behind the knee and improving functionality. The tube construction in the lower leg, combines A-Flex material with a single seam to maximize the flexibility and promote a quick release from your suit in the transition. The buoyancy of this suit features a centralizing core buoyancy to raise the position of the hips in relation to the rest of the swimmer.The 5mm chest thickness of the Helix uses two lateral panels that naturally and anatomically accentuates the lungs, producing the optimal amount of buoyancy for the swimmer in the upper body. The 5mm thick torso uses a core panel of Yamamoto aerodome material to deliver a maximal central buoyancy zone in the suit, keeping the hips high and promoting an efficient downhill swimming position. The 4mm Yamamoto 39 cell neoprene legs deliver the perfect blend of buoyancy without limiting drive from the kick. Reverse Zipper: quicker suit exit Knee Flex Panels: textured panels assist w/ flexibility and reduced bunching Single seam in the legs Buoyancy: 5-5-4, including buoyancy in torso for keeping the hips high and promoting an efficient downhill swimming position. Integrated chest panel 2mm neoprene with A-Flex material maximizes stretch during respiration and improves comfort.

The suit is made from Xtra-Life Lycra which ensures great shape retention and comfort throughout the race. The main body of this range is made from a black or navy color to ensure modesty and superior coverage.
